I think you are right about the Martyr of Ashes.
I hate Needle Drop personally because they are a horrible topdeck, they suck against anything blue (they counter your other thing, you are stuck with Needle Drop in your hand) and they are just death against Chittering Rats.
I think you are underrating Staggershock as it is the only card except Fireblast that hits for four damage in one card.

I think you are underrating Staggershock as it is the only card except Fireblast that hits for four damage in one card. I had a discussion with some of the people at mtgs and yeah I (finally) agree 4+ damage spells are nothing to scoff at. I got two 4-0 recently, one with the list above but replacing Staggershock with Faithless Looting and having a 2/2 split with Martyr of Ashes and Electrickery. My other win was with this list which went 4-0 on the 5294122 pauper event against Mirror, Delver, Affinity and Affinity: Lands 22 20x Mountains 02x Forgotten Cave Creatures 08 01x Martyr of Ashes 03x Keldon Marauders 04x Kiln Fiend Sorcery 16 04x Lava Spike 04x Rift Bolt 04x Chain Lightning 04x Flame Rift Instants 14 02x Staggershock 04x Lightning Bolt 04x Fireblast 04x Searing Blaze Sideboards 15 02x Raze 03x Martyr of Ashes 03x Pyroblast 03x Smash to Smithreens 04x Molten Rain so it worked out too: 20 sources of 3 damage spells (2/6) 10 sources of 4 damage spells (1/6) 08 creatures (0.8/6) 22 lands (2.2/6) Where you only need to hit 4+4+3+3+3+3 for lethal. Chris (cweaver) was playing his evil deck in the same tournament he also went 4-0, lucky for me we didn't get paired up ;D sissela I visited your site (which is great) would you be able to create a page or section where we can just discuss random magic related stuff? I wanted to ask you somethings about M13 sealed since I haven't actually played or touch many of the new recent cards (been out of standard for years now) but didn't know where to post it. Don't forget you can watch some my replays on the this channel: www.youtube.com/user/MrMagicdownunder?feature=mhee

We tried to start a forum on mtgostrat but we coudl not manage it. It was overrun by spambots. I have asked Will to link to this forum instead. We would love to have Pauper to the People's forum be the forum of mtgostrat. You can ask me M13 stuff here or in the comments to one of my M13 videos on YouTube (or in the comments to a M13 article on mtgostrat).
I saw Johnyhotsauce (whose deck I based Pauper Walktrhoughs Episode 2 - Mono Red Burn) have returned to Pauper, playing Burn. He 4-0d a Daily recently and he made some interesting choices. He is possibly the best burn player, so I respect his judgement. He included 4 x Incinerate, for example
Would link to it, but I have to return to the MOCS this very second

I like the deck! Are u from Australia? Yep, I wonder how you found out I like the Frostburn Weirds! When do you bring them in? Frostburn Weird is for stalling the hyper aggressive decks like Elves, Stompy, Aura and Goblins till you have 3-4 mana to play your Martyr of Ashes. I want to know how curse has been for you, but yes I agree, sideboard plan plz plz:D Curse of the Pierced Heart has been doing great, I use it for all the grindy MU’s we have such as the mirror and tempo/control games. Sideboard Plan: Stompy/Goblins/Elves In 03x Martyr of Ashes 02x Frostburn Weird Out 04x Lava Spike 01x Goblin Fireslinger Affinity In 03x Martyr of Ashes 03x Smash to Smithereens Out 04x Lava Spike 02x Staggershock Delver In 03x Curse of the Pierced Heart 02x Frostburn Weird Out 03x Lava Spike 02x Shard Volley Post In 04x Molten Rain 03x Curse of the Pierced Heart Out 02x Firebolt 02x Shard Volley 03x Keldon Marauders Black Control (UB as well) In 04x Molten Rain 03x Curse of the Pierced Heart Out 03x Kiln Fiend 04x Goblin Fireslinger Mirror In 03x Curse of the Pierced Heart 01x Frostburn Weird Out 04x Goblin Fireslinger If I find time to play todays event I might toss in an extra Kiln Fiend in the SB for Post and Delver....
